Abstract
Although it has one of the less expensive costs of attendance, universal access to higher education in México is still far away from becoming a reality. The federal government along with the public and private educational institutions have implemented different approaches to increase access but the gap among higher and lower strata of the population represented in HEIs seems to be widening. Recently, the federal government proposed to change the Constitution to include higher education as a right and therefore, compulsory. This essay intends to show a brief picture of the state of college access in Mexico as well as the implications of moving to a compulsory system. It ends with a series of recommendations for stakeholders to get involved in addressing the manifold issues pertaining to the state of college access and success in México.
